A system that facilitates generation of a user interface, comprising:

• means for defining abstract class parameters representative of methods and properties of an interface;
• means for parsing the class parameters;
• and
• means for automatically generating at least a portion of the interface based in part on the abstract class parameters.

A method that facilitates automatic generation of a user interface, comprising:

• defining an abstract class for user interface components;
• adding properties and methods to the abstract class;
• associating the methods with interface components;
• and
• associating the properties with a type component.

A computer readable medium having a data structure stored thereon, comprising:

• a class component to store properties and methods relating to an interface;
• a first field defining at least one interface component associated with the methods;
• and
• a second field defining at least one editor component associated with the properties.
